Revay v. Cleveland State University

Ohio Court of Claims
2003 Ohio Misc. LEXIS 74 (2003)

Facts

George Revay (plaintiff) was a student at Cleveland State University (defendant). Revay had attended the university for several years and had completed over 200 hours of class credit. Revay needed an additional 47 credit hours to be awarded a degree. In March 2001, Revay was notified that he had been awarded financial aid of $500 for the summer semester. The letter from the university granting the financial-aid award specifically reserved the right of the university to adjust any financial-aid award based on eligibility and enrollment. During the summer of 2001, Revay enrolled in one class. In August 2001, the university notified Revay that the university was revoking his $500 aid award for the summer of 2001 because Revay did not meet the guidelines for satisfactory academic progress (SAP). The SAP guidelines in the university’s catalogs and website specified that undergraduate students could not complete more than 192 credit hours to be eligible for financial aid. Revay petitioned the university to reinstate his financial aid, but Revay’s petition was denied. Revay filed a lawsuit against the university, alleging that the university had committed fraud and should be estopped from revoking Revay’s financial-aid award.
